So now it does not matter what platform you choose for your smartphone, you cannot escape Google AI surveillance. Well you can shut it off on the iPhone I guess, but that means no more privacy focused Apple Intelligence.

Next to all the money they poured into Liquid glAss, this will be the worst investment Apple has ever made.

OP's 9to5mac article states:

  Also under the agreement, Google’s model will reportedly run on Apple’s own servers, which in practice means that no user data will be shared with Google. Instead, they won’t leave Apple’s Private Cloud Compute structure.

Bloomberg states:

  The model will run on Apple’s own Private Cloud Compute servers, ensuring that user data remains walled off from Google’s infrastructure.

This assumes they'll make the data available to Google. With all their secure "Private Cloud Compute" stuffs they advertised, there's a good chance it will not be shared.

		Giving credit where its due, I think the private cloud compute stuff of Apple is really interesting architecure wise. I think it included using ARM Cpu's with a special realm ability to prevent certain types of attacks to minimize the amount of trust if I remember correctly.

If iOS opened up the ability to implement your own assistant like VoiceInteractionService on Android, you wouldn't have to worry about it. On Android, if you don't like Google providing the service, you can switch to OpenAI, Alexa, or even your own service.
